Audience, performers, space, and story

The art of performing can come in many forms. Today it can even be in the form of poetry and serve as an inspirational creation. Usually when people think of performing, they would think of acting as the only main form. I originally only thought of theatre and dancing as the only possible forms of performance. after watching Slam Nation, I realize that a performance comes in many shape and form. The reason for this is the fact that slam nation hits the major four functions of a theatre. the first function is having and audience and I can reassure you, slam nation does have an authentic audience. Slam nation is a new form poetry that is competitive and entertaining. It brings audience from all over the world together. The audience that are in slam nation plays out an important role suh as judging and giving a performance rating. This is similar to that of the theatre where they give their opinion and do criticisms. This is not possible if they did not have any performers. Both the theatre and Slam nation have performers that comes from many background and areas. They come from all over the US and the world. Each of these performers have their own skills and certain styles for performing. The place of performing changes from one place to another. In slam nations they start out at a bar and slowly get their way up toward better stages as they move forward in the tournament. For actors, their space and location is extremely poor at the start of they are an unknown artist but as they continue and become more known, their stage will get better and better with time, this is how both slam nation and actual live theatre are similar with their space to perform. finally each of these two have a story they go by. he theatre has a story line that they rehearse. For performers of slam nation, people perform with their own set script and it is then performed. This performance all depends on the actor and the scence is set by them.
